and because you have done worse than your fathers, for behold, every one of you follows his stubborn, evil will, refusing to listen to me.... Jeremiah 16.13
Jeremiah recounted all the sins that the people had done throughout their history that led to their being driven from the land. Their forefathers had practiced idolatry, immorality and injustice. But it was not just them. It is us, here, now. The turn in the road begins when we stop blaming all others and point to us. Until we do it only gets worse.
